What have you done to your 200 Series this week? (37 Viewers)

[CLHickman]

Awesome thank you! My problem with the auto sensor is that it goes bananas with light rain... wishing I could manually adjust to slow intermittent. I have adjusted the scroller to the lightest mode but still goes super fast. Otherwise I use the slow on mode or just push up and manually wipe when needed. I will try this.

Very welcome! Take no more than 2 minutes to do.

I think 34's are a nice balance.
-Great functionality and great looks without as much to fiddle with to accommodate 35's.
If I did 35's, I think I'd want to swap gears... Maybe you 35ers can chime in...

I'm curious to hear specifically WHERE your 34's are rubbing, as I'd really like to run 34's with my Rock Warriors. Very different off-set...so I'm wondering if your rubbing is due to your wide offset...or...?

Where, exactly, to they hit/rub?

A wobble when coming to a stop?
Makes me think of warped brake rotors. Curious. Can you describe the "wobble?"

You can see the areas I'm rubbing. Shouldn't be all that bad to remedy.

Is that second one against metal?

I'll be interested to see how this goes. Thanks for posting.

Are there any sliders that do not require drilling? simple to install? just curious.

No. Not sure of others, but @sleeoffroad Sliders are just tanks for strength. In Ouray one year I took a side obstacle and slid down on the side and the entire truck was resting and teetering on the slider. The guys on the radio said it was flexing a bit and when I got pulled off it was back to normal position. Again- the best thousand bucks you will spend..

Word. I have trees on my trail systems. These work wonders as tree shovers.

Not worried about drilling. It seems like if anything, Slee (or other super-stout) sliders don't just protect from body panel damage, but might actually strengthen the frame itself. Sorta like an exoskeleton, or a cast on a broken leg. Yes? No?

Yes, but more like an Iron Man Suit. No doubt would add to the side impact protection tremendously.

Not this week, but before Christmas I finally got around to some maint. diffs and T.case serviced. PS fluid flush new wipers and a wash after months without one. 10k more than time for spark plugs.

Proformance did a great job!

Tires go on tomorrow, just in time for the snow.

So you removed the inner portion of the rings, right?
I guess they'll be easier to clean now...

 

[codyaustin5]

In case anyone is wondering. Plastidip can be sprayed on sensors and they still work. Silver sensors gone.

View attachment 1188229 Installed led fog light bulbs by Phillips.

Where did you get those? Do you have a part number? It always has driven me nuts how the fog lights are an amber color... Thanks in advance

Nothing to do with cleaning, just aesthetics.

What has been done to my 200? Did the 170k km service and noticed a slight ps leak as well as I've torn a cv boot within 2 months of it being replaced


Screw it most my days are spent caressing someone else so I know why she's pissed

 

[MScruiser]

Wired up a new switch to control the 225W LED spotlights I just ordered.

 

[mark71]

225 watts? Holy crap that's a lot of wattage for light produced by LEDs!

We shall see how bright they really are; I'll know on Tuesday. $250 a set was what drew me in.

They are similar to these: 2X 9.8Inch 225W Cree Led Spot Driving Light Offroad 4×4 Atv Truck Suv Lamp Red

Ah. Look like ARb knock-offs...complete with the red ring.

Will be curious to see how they work out. That's less than a fourth the cost of the ARBs.
